This is a start at a page for diagnosing problems while setting up Grist. Starting to add some diagnostics based on feedback in github issues. We should make Grist installation easier! But when there is a problem it should be easier to diagnose than it is now, and this may help. The page is ugly and doesn't have many diagnostics yet, but we can iterate.
Visit `/boot` on a Grist server for tips on how to use this feature.

Summary:
There has been inconsistency in using display email vs normalized email, which
ends up creating some duplication in downstream analyses (e.g. the same user
showing up twice with different capitalization).
1. Add UserProfile.loginEmail field with normalized email to prefer, when set, over the inconsistently used UserProfile.email.
2. In one place where it's not available, normalize the display email manually.
3. Clean up some code in Client.ts.
Unrelated tweak to API Console to be clear when a URL parameter wasn't found (rather than show whatever happens to be the first value).
Several test robustness improvements:
- Misplaced parenthesis in gristWebDriverUtils has been causing optTimeout argument to be ignored in tests, and treated always as indefinite.
- Attempt to fix SortMenu test by ignoring (retrying with logging) errors in waitForServer, which include "script timeout" errors that come from a non-configurable selenium or chromedriver timeout.
- Attempt to improve onNewTab() helper, which plays a role in failing Billing tests.
Test Plan: Tested manually the capitalization of logged emails. Counting on existing tests to catch issues.

Summary:
Adds a new test for formatting and fix several related bugs it uncovered:
1. When editing a number with "," decimal separator, ensure it opens in
the editor with "," (rather than ".", the original bug motivating this).
2. When guessing number format, set maxDecimals when it's needed
(otherwise, e.g. "$1.234", or "4.5%" weren't guessed as numeric)
3. When guessing number format, ignore whitespace when deciding if
guessed format is correct (otherwise percents can't be guessed in
locales which add "%" with a non-breaking space before it).

Without this optimization, we fetched loads of entries from the database, which led to database and nodejs overloads.
We could go further, this is a modest patch towards better performance.
We use two queries: one fetches the workspaces, the second the organization that the workspace belongs to.

Summary:
The first time a worker opens a document, it will now check if it has any shares the home db needs to be aware of. If so, they will be added. This is important for documents uploaded/copied/forked/replaced, so that their shares work out of the box.
In future, may want some UI to give user control of whether shares are activated after upload/copy/fork/replace.
It seems tricky currently to know if a document is being opened for the first time. As a proxy, I check whether usage information has been calculated and saved to the db, since I can determine that without adding another db query. It is safe to synchronize shares more than necessary.
This leaves two gaps:
* If a document is created/uploaded/copied/forked/replaced and no attempt is made to access it prior to using a share, then that share won't actually be available. Not a problem currently I think, since how would a user have determined the share key. But in future it would be good to also do a sync after creation/upload/copy/fork/replacement/...
* On document replacement, usage info is reset but not absolutely immediately. So in principle shares could fail to be created on first load of the replacement. Usage info reset could be tweaked to give a guarantee here, but also fixing the first point would resolve this second point too.
